Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Am][G][Am][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
They say when [Am]a door
[G]closes[Am]
A million others [G]open[Am]
They say when you lose a lov[G]er
[Am]That soon there will come another
[G][F]

[Verse 2]
What if it was you

[Verse 3]
The one I'd go back to
[Am]Realizing what you had[G][Am]
Once it all shatters on [G]the sand[Am]
You remember the very
[G]first[Am]
The second as well as the [G]third[F]

[Verse 4]
You're the one, the [F]only one
I'm as certain as the [C]sun

[Verse 5]
Grow old with me
In a [Dm]pond, in the mud
Be my [Am]cuddling [F]elephant

[Verse 6]
[Am]Corridors and their corners
Accomplices of ro[G]mance[Am]
You look at a sky of chances
[G][Am]
Wondering how to [G]fit [F]in there

[Verse 7]
What if it [F]was you
The one I'd go back [C]to[Am]

[Verse 8]
The point of your [Am]leg [G]acy
[Am]Is in the little thing[G]s
[Am]You hope you left them with[G][Am]

[Verse 9]
If they decide to leave
[C]Grow old with me
In a [Dm]pond, in the mud
Be my [F]cuddling elephant
[C]Lay with me
Through this [Dm]song, sing along
It's loud and [F]un conditional

[Verse 10]
[Am]Lie to me tenderly
[G]To let me be [Am]your kin[C][Am][C]
[G]Lie to me [Em]gradually
[G]To [Dm]let years win the f[G]ear[Dm][Am]

[Verse 11]
[Am]Lie to me tenderly only in order
[C]To let me be your kin or even [Am]bolder
[Em]Lie to me gradua[Am]lly
[C]only in [G]order
[Dsus4]To let years win the
fear of getting [C]older

[Verse 12]
[C]Grow old with me
In a [Dm]pond, in the mud
Be my [F]cuddling ele[C]phant
Lay with me
Through this [Dm]song, sing along
It's loud [F]an d unconditional

[Verse 13]
[C]Grow old with me
In a [Dm]pond, in the mud
Be my cud[F]dling [Am]elephan[F]t
[Dm]
